Given numbers are 273,462,178,486,232

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 273,462,178,486,232 is 5022481464.

Find LCM of 273,462,178,486,232 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 3 x 7 x 13 x 11 x 89 x 81 x 116 = 5022481464

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 273,462,178,486,232 is 5022481464.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

273 x 462 x 178 x 486 x 232 = 2531330657856

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

273 : 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, 39, 91, 273

462 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, 21, 22, 33, 42, 66, 77, 154, 231, 462

178 : 1, 2, 89, 178

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

232 : 1, 2, 4, 8, 29, 58, 116, 232

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 273,462,178,486,232, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

273:3x 7x 13

462:2x 3x 7x 11

178:2x 89

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

232:2x 2x 2x 29

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2x 2x 3x 3x 7 = 504

Therefore, the value for common factors is 504.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 2531330657856/(1x504)

LCM = 2531330657856/504

LCM = 5022481464

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 273,462,178,486,232 is 5022481464.
